“Patients were just a number,” Dr. Parmar said. “That’s not me. I wanted a space where patients are truly prioritized.”
That vision became reality in McKinney, where Archway Dental now offers modern, mindful dental care with a deeply personal touch.
Dr. Parmar’s journey began in India, where she graduated from dental school in 2006. After relocating to the United States, she completed her dental education again at the University of Detroit Mercy in 2014 before settling in Texas in search of warmer weather—and a warmer approach to dentistry.
“Modern Dentistry That’s Mindful of You”
That phrase headlines Archway Dental’s website and captures the heart of everything the practice stands for. For Dr. Parmar, it’s not just a slogan—it’s a daily commitment.
At Archway Dental, that means creating a space where patients feel seen, heard and never rushed. The team combines cutting-edge tools with a deeply personal approach, ensuring treatments are efficient, minimally invasive and comfortable.
This mindfulness is especially important because many patients arrive with dental anxiety or have gone years without care.
“We create a judgment-free zone,” Dr. Parmar said. “Life happens. We meet patients where they are, without shame, and help them move forward.”
A co-diagnostic experience
One of the standout features at Archway Dental is its co-diagnostic approach, which means patients are active participants in understanding and planning their dental care.
“Dentistry can be so complicated, from treatment to insurance to finances,” Dr. Parmar said. “So we educate patients every step of the way, helping them make informed decisions. We hold their hands from the first call to the final result.”
Patients are asked about their goals for oral health, and the Archway Dental team creates a personalized plan based on those goals, ensuring patients feel supported and confident throughout their care journey.
Guiding patients toward relief
While Archway Dental offers a full range of general and cosmetic services, such as veneers, crowns, fillings, implants and smile makeovers, they also treat issues that many patients don’t expect a dentist to handle.
“We treat TMJ [temporomandibular joint dysfunction] and orofacial pain, including migraines and chronic headaches, using splints and therapeutic Botox,” Dr. Parmar said. “It surprises people that we can address those issues, but the results can be life-changing.”
Because many patients don’t always know what type of dental service they need, Archway Dental makes it easy to take the first step. Their website is designed to guide people based on symptoms, like “I have jaw pain” or “I have a broken tooth”, rather than asking them to identify a specific procedure. That approach mirrors the in-person experience, where the team listens closely, educates thoroughly, and helps patients navigate their care with confidence and clarity.
Recommended with confidence
Much of Archway Dental’s growth has come from word-of-mouth referrals, something Dr. Parmar is deeply grateful for.
For patients without insurance, Archway Dental offers an in-house discount plan. For insurance patients they are in-network with most PPOs and accept Medicare Advantage plans.
